Score predictions - Oxford home

Oxford are dark horses for many coming into this season. Despite a worrying start to the season, with a defeat to Cambridge, and then a drumming at...

This lot won 7-0 two weeks ago. We’ve only won once in about 13 games at Oakwell. I’m going to be happy if we get a draw.

Bolton being well and truly blown away by Wigan .

I kind of wrote Wigan off this season due to financial issues. Looks like I was wrong. They always seem to be in this cycle.

Bolton being well and truly blown away by Wigan .

It’s been said a lot lately that Wigan have the best attack in L1 with Charlie Wyke, Callum Lang, Callum McManaman and Steven Humphrys.

Still it’s a surprising score line at table toppers Bolton.

Given the point deduction you'd think they're unlikely to get autos. Playoffs not impossible though if they keep up this form. And if they get playoffs, they'd probably win them - effectively an autos-level team only in the playoffs on a point deduction.

Josh McEachran starts on the bench.

Fancy the bench to win that fight.

 

[uptheus]

Also, could we have played in yellow?

 

[Davox]

Not naming Murphy confirms he’s off. Disappointing we couldn’t get best out of him and he couldn’t give his best to us.

 

[uptheus]

Who would you drop for him?

I wouldn’t, but then again, I wouldn’t have signed him in the first place, or even thought he was going to be a player that we could count on this season, unlike some.

We can only hope

Who would you have not had on the bench though? Not saying I disagree with your reasoning but equally struggle to see why you would change the playing squad at the moment.

 

[ttg17]

Seems an odd game in which to give young Mills his first start. And Rodrigues benched for the second game in a row seems noteworthy - doesn't seem like he's done a lot wrong when he's played. Anyway, in Manning we trust!

Why? Who does he replace on the bench? Tyler? Rodrigues? Donks?

You may be right but can't see who we'd drop unless he became a left wing back
